Typography in fashion

Perickles · 02-09-2010

I'm looking for some collections where the protagonist is the typography, for example this one of Viktor & Rolf called No (Ready to wear F/W 2008-09)

I want to see more like this...thanks

you might try researching font in fashion for example the louis vuitton font (i think the george font comes close)

Perickles · 02-09-2010

Thanks but I'm not looking exactly for logotypes . I want to see how fashion designers work with typography in clothes like viktor & rolf (they worked with 3D and 2D typography, and in makeup also)

Louis Vuitton (I don't know if this was before Stephen Sprouse dead or for his homage)

Balenciaga recently had some pieces with some text.

I hope these are kind of what your talking about.

Thanks Givenchyhomme, it looks very interesting ;-). Yes, you understood what I wanted. I feel so glad when fashion meets with typography.

What a fab idea for a thread, a meeting of two loves of mine! Will try and think of some, there's one I'm trying to think of....

john galliano remains the king of this sort of thing. from his early work at dior to some of his current stuff in menswear, he tends toward typeface for a lot of his "must have" pieces.

Katherine Hamnett remains the queen with the slogan t-shirts she introduced in the early 80ies... which Henry Holland blatantly copied for his own t-shirt line.

I have found this nice shirt of John Lawrence Sullivan, I think It was designed by Arashi Yanagawa. It seems like a Trajan style. I love it!

DIDOT font is absolutely stylish

Moschino does a nice play of words/wording in some of their designs ... like clothes with the word "LOGO" going all over it .. couldnt find one right now but found this on the internet

from zappos.com

Yes, It's interesting also when brands play with its logotypes in clothes and accesories

In here I found the same concept but with Fendi bags
